Kingsbury, Texas
Kingsbury is a small community in Guadalupe County, in the South Central Texas farm country about 18 miles east of New Braunfels. The land here is a mix of cropland and pasture along the Guadalupe River drainage. The town is known for the Old Kingsbury Aerodrome, a grass airstrip that is home to the Pioneer Flight Museum and its collection of early aircraft, which fly during periodic fly-in events.
Property here runs through the Guadalupe Central Appraisal District and the county tax office — the homestead exemption, the appraisal cap, protests, and any MUD, PID, or special districts all sit at the parcel level. The Guadalupe County notes below cover the practical details, with the official county directory for the appraisal district and tax office.
